So I did a clean install of Windows 10, and everything is fine except that my second drive is not accessible. I checked device manager, and it sees it, but in Windows Explorer it just shows my boot drive, my 500 GB SSD. I use the second drive for backup data from my original install, so I can't reformat it. I tried using Windows' built in troubleshooter to fix the storage solution option, but that didn't work.

Can someone help me out?

EDIT:

Thank you! That was easy!
